Braun Smeared Test Collector To Other Stars

(Jeff Hanisch, USA TODAY)
In Spring Training of 2012, Ryan Braun tried to smear the urine test collector involved in his positive drug test to his fellow teammates—as well as stars on other teams. Reportedly, Braun claimed the collector—Dino Laurenzi Jr.—was a Cubs fan and an Anti-Semite. Braun's pathetic lies can only deepen the sense of betrayal peers and fans will feel toward him. Braun accepted a 65-game suspension from MLB, which will keep him off the field for the balance of the 2013 season.
